Battlefield 1 hardcore mode now available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One

Want to test your skills against other Battlefield 1 players? Then you're going to want to go hardcore.

Battlefield 1 received its highly-anticipated Fall Update yesterday across all platforms, which included quite the laundry list of changes to the popular shooter. Today, EA announced it has activated its hardcore servers to offer an experience geared towards its elite players.

“Playing on a hardcore server, you might not be assisted by a minimap, crosshair, or the ability to spot enemies depending on the server settings,” DICE says in a blog post. This means those who are even considering playing on one of the game’s hardcore servers should be very comfortable with its game mechanics, or else you’re going to have a bad time.

Battlefield 1’s hardcore servers launched this morning at 4am PT / 7am ET, so if you’ve been waiting for its release, be sure to check it out later today.
